Lots of information on Border Collies

From the dustjacket: In this book, the history of the modern breed is outlined, the Breed Standards are discussed, and dual registration is explained. All aspects of ownership, health care (general and breed specific), management and breeding are covered, before the wealth of activities open to the breed are explored: showing, Trials & Tests, Obedience & Agility, explosive detection, and search and rescue work. There is also a chapter on the breed's role throughout the world. This complete illustrated guide will prove to be an invaluable source of reference and guidance. Based on a lifetime's research by one of the Border Collie/Working Sheep Dog's foremost authorities.
